you gotta think about it tho, how did the culture 4000 years ago make the machines and trusses that this guy made? i dont think they had hammers and nails back in the day to do it like this guy. he may not be using anything technical, but the machines he built were still made with drills and mider-saws

Stonehedge aint just a pile of stone but its a SOLAR CALENDAR that shows more skills in astrology than the egyptian and grec at ther best, Whoever build Stonehedge knew more than any1 in the world at that time, stonehedge can even tell you wen theres gonna be a sun or moon eclipse, it tells you that theres 365days,12months,23h.56min.Well its Actully 24h day but its so well done that it catches up every 4year at the bisectil to make it 23,56


The Celtic legend says that its Mage Balthazar that build it, in reality since it shows so much astrology skills it rules out all the Celtic,German Tribes and the Grec And egyptian too since stonehedge shows way too much skills for ther time and leave out 1 Kingdom "Atlantis" another legend?

So you're saying that ancient civilizations can cut and grind massive stones into perfect shapes that fit together but they can't piece together some wooden supports to hold those stones up temporarily?

goddamn.. that is refreshing to be honest. We've so many legends about the place it's silly.

I do like the idea that it was made by giants, the ancient Nephilim or similar. Supposedly the priest kings of atlantis were giants.

just thought of a mistake.. at stone henge the top blocks are considerably shorter than the uprights. Using this guys teeter-totter principle it would be impossible to raise a block higher than it is long.

You can raise these blocks to a height of just under half the length of each block, using the principles here you would have a stonehenge with short uprights and long top blocks

You can only raise it half its length if you use the center for a fulcrum. He could slide it so its at like a 1/3 of the distance and you can raise it a lot higher, then he could use the rock thing to turn it around and so it was 2/3 the distance and do it again to even everything out. Iunno, maybe not, just an idea.

Amen Wally... You rock, literally and figurally.
And yes indeed, scientists are often stuck with their heads up in the clouds they're the 'know-it-alls' who eventually end up with oversized, overdone and overlooked theories.

Ask the workers... the buider, the mechanic, the technician and the engineer those are the people with practical knowledge who can apply a theory if needed but just tend to use common sense and stay down to earth.
I truly admire this man, I really do :)
